"he does a lot of tilts and turns other kids cant do" ...and he needs just four more wins to be crowned a state champion. find out why kobey pritchard's opponents have quit underestimating him... and why it's taken so long. it's a case tat could have far reaching implications on it's a case that could have far reaching implications on future wrongful death lawsuits... all stemming from the death of a famous iowa musician. and i'm dan winters. the bassist for the band slipknot... paul gray died of a drug overdose in moines doctor daniel baldi for wrongful death. the case comes down to timing... and could redefine a state law... the iowa supreme court took it up tonight... channel 13's mike dasilva was 13... that's right..when does the

members have to file a lawsuit if they suspect their loved one's death was caused by negligence or some other wrongful action by a doctor. iowa's statute of limitations for medical malpractice claims is two years... at the time of gray's death his wife was three months pregnant with their daughter. four years later, in february of 2014, mr. gray's estate, his wife, and child filed a lawsuit against gray's doctor -- daniel baldi. that lawsuit sought to recover financial damages for what they claim is the wrongful death of mrs. gray's husband and her child's father. but a district judge dismissed the case because he said it was past the statute of limitations. the judge saying the suit was filed two years too late... this appeal before the supreme court is about whether that was the right call... 23:45:50--23:46:14 what happened in this case was that mr. gray had various drug addiction problems. he was seeking medical help and had sought medical help for some period of time. he ended up dying, and the question in

medical personnel doctors and hospitals treating him had created any medical malpractice relating to it.' 00:18:23--39 'we believe that the statute of limitations, its not ambigious, the courts been down this road before with shultz, its an analysis that holds true. death is the same now as death as it was then.' this case raises important questions about when a person in iowa may bring a lawsuit stemming from a claim of medical malpractice and about the rights of an unborn child to recover for the death of her father. we can expect a decision from the court as early may...but no later than june... its important to note that baldi was cleared criminally in gray's death after jurors acquitted the doctor of manslaughter in the overdoses of gray and several other patients. iowa's supreme court justices are honoring their late

in a written statement.. grassley says its "standard practice over the last nearly 80-years that supreme court nominees are not nominated and confirmed during a presidential election year. he must not remember 19-88... 3-12 i am also thankful as others have expressed for expiditing this vote the first week after a recess.

kennedy on the committe's vote of confidence today which i think he'll git. in 19-88... an election year... senator grassley was grateful for the senate's decision to quickly take up the supreme court nomination of justice anthony kennedy. kennedy was the second nominee for the vacant seat. president ronald reagan initially selected robert bork in july of 19-87. he was rejected by the senate in october of that same year. in less than two-weeks iowa will turn over management of its medicaid system to three private companies. the change was supposed to happen on january first. it was delayed when federal regulators determined the state wasn't ready. some lawmakers still aren't convinced the state is ready. 'if i called cms would they say everything is ready to go and marked completed and were going to move forward march first, couldnt speak for cms i dont know how they would respond what i do know is that we have agreed on....so we really dont know, we believe were ready march first

indianola fire fighters helped pull rauzi to safety and rush him to the hospital. he is still regaining feeling in his hands... but doctors say they are amazed at how quickly he recovered. fire fighters spend countless hours training for that exact type of rescue... but for a des moines man its that training that's killing him... channel 13's justin surrency explains. marshalltown community college softball coach garland shirley is used to defeating opponents... "my softball players are like and get through alot of things."becoming a des moines firefighter in 2004 was a passion fulfilled... "the camaraderie , having the ability to help people when they are on their worst day, that was something i really enjoyed."and it showed... "you could see that from day one station." "nobody had a bad word to say about garland shirley."while he often helped save the lives of others...a training exercise at

lake in 2007 is now slowly killing him... "at some point in the time i was in the water i aspirated some of the ice water into my lungs and it caused a lung injury that they call interstitial pneumonia"it scratched his lungs "typically from diagnosis to death of pulminary fibrosis is 3 to 6 years and i was diagnosed in 2007."doctors say a potential lung transplant will only hold off the inevitable... "after a lung transplant, life expectancy is 3-7 years..."but a recent trip to california has offered an alternative for stem cell harvesting treatment.... "they say it has positive effects, a lot of people have seen improvement...i get a long really good now and lung capacity is something i'm alternative will lengthen his life before needing a lung transplant but it's not covered by his firefighters insurance... "whatever the cost it's going to be, i'm going to try to get there...so in typical fashion his des moines firefighting buddies are first

"anything we can do to help garland."with a fundraiser... "he gave everything he had to the city of des moines and we are trying to give back to garland now."garland doesn't shy away from reality... " i suffered an injury on the fire department that will eventually be reason why i die."but there's another victory the coach hopes to fulfill, one without regrets " i have a grandson on the way, i'd like to be active in his life" "if i could go back and do it again, i'd do it agin. to have the opportunity to help somebody else is the best thing a person can do." garland's daughter created the page just 12 days ago and it's raised over 4,000 dollars...garland hopes to reach his 25,000 goal by april, just before the high school softball season begins so he can coach at ankeny centennial as well... baylor overcame hilton magic in ames... and tonight the cyclones are

georges niang knew this would be a big night. he'd pass his former coach, fred hoiberg, as the third leading scorer in iowa state history. but what niang wants most at baylor is a win.

for the cyclones, 100 to 91 in overtime. not the way niang wanted this night to end. here's the cyclones career scoring leader list: jeff grayer with more than 25 hundred points won't be caught by niang, or likely anyone else. niang moves into third place and also joins the exclusvie 2 thousand point club. hoiberg drops to fourth, and though i'm sure he would have something witty to say, as an nba coach, fred's not allowed to comment on college players. two teams eyeing a trip to boys state basketball test each other tonight. hoover is the new number one team in class 4-a, hosting 5th ranked dowling. huskies douglas wilson, off the glass and in. that cuts dowling's lead
